You are so right. After strolling through the whole thread, is is the real relevant comment. The RS3 will be about the same price. The 400 hp 5 cyl motor. Likely to be faster than the m2. All of the TTRS benefits with better styling. For the same price, 4wd, tft dash, led headlights, optional CERAMICS, and a bunch of nice colors, optional painted calipers, and a great looking interior. ( OK, optioned out, more expensive, but not by much) Handling dynamics will be a deciding factor - I'm not necessarily thinking of picking an rs3 over an m2, they might make nice stable mates.
